Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book delves into the republican nature of Presbyterianism in contrast to prelacy and popery. The author begins by clarifying that Christianity and the Christian church are independent of any form of civil government. The author then explores how the principles of the Christian church are analogous to those of a republic, arguing that Presbyterianism, as a non-episcopal form of church government, is the most compatible with republicanism. The author examines the republican aspects of Presbyterianism as found in its doctrines, ecclesiastical systems, history, and creeds. The book ultimately seeks to demonstrate that Presbyterianism is the most suitable and compatible form of church government for a democratic and republican society.
